The weight of the air on the earths surface is?
The weight of the air on the earth is called... Air Pressure
What is the weight of air the surface of the earth which varies from place to place?
0.00.10.20.30.40.50.60.70.80.91.0
What does 2.2046 pounds equal in Kilograms?
While we often use this conversion factor, it is not true. pounds (weight) is a force while kilograms are a mass. but this is the weight of a kilogram on the earths surface (where g=9.81) but on the moon's surface 1Kg is approximately .367 pounds.
If you were on the moon your weight would be roughly what fraction of your weight on earth?
The moons gravity is a lot lower than the Earths, so the men exploring the lunar surface will weigh a lot less, roughly 1/6th of what they do on earth.
What is it called when water molecules are stuck so tightly together that they form a film that can support the weight of an insect?
Surface tension.
The weight of the air on the earths surface is?
The weight of the air on the earth is called... Air Pressure
What is the type of potential energy dependent upon an object's weight and distance from earths surface?
That is called gravitational potential energy.
When you push UP on an object when object is stationary on earths surface you increase your weight when you push DOWN on an object when object is stationary on earths surface you decrease your weight?
No, your weight is just the acceleration due to the Earth's gravity,
About how much is the Moon's gravitational force compares to the earths?
The weight of any object on the surface of the moon is 16.55% of its weight on the surface of the Earth.
What is the weight of air the surface of the earth which varies from place to place?
0.00.10.20.30.40.50.60.70.80.91.0
What is the weight of a 3.5kg mass at the earths surface?
Weight = mass x g ... the gravitational acceleration at the earth's surface. Fwt = mg = 3.5 x 9.8 = 34.3 n
What is potential energy dependent upon an objects weight and distance from earths surface?
Gravitational potential energy.
What is the force exerted on an object by the earths pull called?
Gravity, its weight.
What is the pull of earths gravity called?
You call it the "weight" of objects on Earth.
What is the weigh in newtons of a 10 kg mass on the earths surface?
If you want to get extremely precise it depends on WHERE on Earth's surface it's located, because the Earth's gravitational pull at the surface varies slightly from location to location.That said, 980 newtons is going to be in the right ballpark.
Does weighing machine gives mass or weight?
A weighing machine will give you the mass of an item. The weight of an item is the amount of force that an item exerts on the earths surface.
What would be effect on mass and weight of a body if it is taken from earth surface to the surface of moon?
The mass will remain the same, but the weight will be one sixth of what it was on earth, since weight depends on the local force of gravity. The moons gravity is one sixth of the earths.
